[Display omitted] •Monolayer C60 film is grown on a SrTiO3(001) surface for the first time.•Monolayer C60 exhibit a short-range ordered molecular arrangement, while multi-layer C60 show a quasi-(2 × 2) superstructure with a chiral pinwheel motif.•Monolayer C60 on STO shows the largest HOMO-LUMO gap...
